11 Thanks guys, I hadn't looked into the 2006.1 directory to see the
12 desktop/server permutations. I am sorry to hear xmms is coming to an end -
13 it has served me really well on my old machines. Is there an accord on a
14 current suitable alternative? I found xmms relatively light on resources
15 compared to say, xine derivatives.
